Mission
We prepare students to understand and safely manage Earth and its
resources for the future.
Vision
The Department of Geological and Mining Engineering and Sciences
intends to be nationally recognized through education and research
programs in geological engineering, mining engineering, geology, and
geophysics. These programs emphasize applications and the development
of new technology in understanding and safe management of Earth and
its resources. The department strives to foster an environment in which
students learn to think, conduct research, apply knowledge, and achieve
success in a diverse and changing global economy.
